What is Folle Blanche?

A traditional Armagnac grape variety that produces fine, often floral eau-de-vie with notable elegance.

Extra Old — an Armagnac aged a minimum of 10 years in oak. Castarède typically ages its XO well beyond that minimum.

How should I serve it?

Best neat as a digestif; its tobacco and dried-fruit character pairs well with a cigar.

Castarède Bas Armagnac XO is composed entirely of 100% Folle Blanche from the estate's own vineyard — a fine, floral, and elegant Armagnac from the oldest Armagnac trading house in the world.

Maison Castarède, founded in 1832 in southwest France, is now run by sixth-generation Florence Castarède. This XO is made exclusively from Folle Blanche, a traditional grape that yields delicate, floral eaux-de-vie of great elegance. While the XO designation requires a minimum of 10 years in oak, Castarède over-delivers, aging its XO considerably longer for added depth and rancio character.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Cigar tobacco, dried herbs and flowers, and toffee
Palate: Oak, dates, and prune with developing earthy rancio
Finish: Long, dry, and elegant
